1 The ML/FT National Risk Assessment - MALTA Manfred Galdes Director FIAU (Malta)
2 Background 1. The international standards are unequivocal All the jurisdictions are required, to identify, assess, and understand the ML/TF risks for the country, and take action, including designating an authority or mechanism to coordinate actions to assess risks, and apply resources, aimed at ensuring the risks are mitigated effectively. (FATF Recommendation 1) Money laundering and terrorist financing risks are understood and, where appropriate, actions co-ordinated domestically to combat money laundering and the financing of terrorism and proliferation (FATF Methodology Effectiveness Assessment Immediate Outcome 1) 2. MONEYVAL s 4th Round Mutual Evaluation Report on Malta
3 National Risk Assessment The ML/TF National Risk Assessment (NRA) is a process of identifying and evaluating the money laundering and terrorist financing risks in a particular jurisdiction and analysing the main sources and drivers of the risks in order to develop effective and risk-based policies and actions, and allocate the available resources in the most efficient way to eliminate, control and mitigate the identified risks (World Bank)
4 Malta The absence of a National Risk Assessment in the area of AML/CFT had long been felt. No such study had ever been commissioned previously. Factors making it possible: Political commitment A committed Working Group Leadership Methodology, tool and technical assistance Availability of data
5 Cardinal points A credible methodology A sophisticated yet user-friendly tool An effort to ensure inter-agency co-operation Not a one-time exercise This is a country report Results must lead to action The final outcome will be the collection of empirical conclusions to be presented to decision-makers (not a good-news document)
6 Objectives International standards and expectations of FATF/FSRB must be met The identification of vulnerabilities, threats and risks will allow Governments to be in a position to mitigate those risks through legislation, administrative measures and other reparatory action A tool for policy makers in developing national policy and strategies, and in determining how financial and human resources should be allocated Law enforcement agencies will have a clearer idea of the areas of concern A tool for reporting entities required to adopt a risk-based approach under revised international standards. Resources can then be allocated more efficiently and more effectively A clearer idea for regulators/supervisors of the scale of risk and the sectors where risk is higher. Risk-based supervision will be facilitated
7 Country-specific factors Identification of the inherent characteristics of the country that will need to be taken into consideration Does our geographical position pose a ML/FT threat in itself? Are the threats faced mainly internal or external? Are the regulatory structures for the prevention of ML/FT through the financial and DNFBP sectors sufficiently robust? Even when one considers the size of these sectors and their proportion to our GDP? Do the statistics available on the type of prosecutions and convictions, and figures for confiscations convince us that the systems are working effectively in practice?
